  • ATL is very senior and getting more so
  • NYC is fairly junior
I'm with ACL that a number of MSP pilots are probably going to see NYC works better for them.
I actually pretty content on M88 NYC, just figuring in the remote chance my seniority sits around the same percentile in one or more better paying categories might as well just let a VD carry me into it.

The 88B position in NYC has seemed understaffed lately, and I can see that probably carrying over after this bid until the newhires start up again.

Either way I can see NYC getting more junior guys, who knows with these bids though. Last bid wasn't all that big and ended cause alot of movement, so who knows.
